It's been only four years
Of your life, passing on by

You came awkward and shy
What to say, which way to go
You didn't know
What everything was about

Now your on your way out
And everything seems clear

It's been only four years
Of your life, passing on by

Each year you grew
And you grew a little more
That smile no longer confound
You made friends
who were fond of you

This school was full of them
Friends for life and more

It's been only four years
Of your life, passing on by

It feels like a lifetime to some
And others are ready to run
But no one will forget
All the good times that have gone

Hilarious, sad, profound
Memories were behind every corner
Unforgettable people talking to us
Their face will be
cemented in our minds

It's been only four years
Of your life, passing on by

And great teachers were always
Pushing you beyond
putting seeds in your mind
Now your ready to harvest
The ideas that fill your mind

These have only been four years
  a temporary settlement
In our life
Beautiful times flying on by

Now it's time to enter
The rest of our lifetime
Making a difference,
Surely in our mind
